The arrests came as a result of continued investigation by the Saskatchewan RCMP’s homicide investigation unit, according to a release from the Mounties.

“Saskatchewan RCMP’s Homicide Investigation Unit have also laid charges related to the altercation that resulted in multiple inmates being injured,” the release from police said.

Court dates have not been confirmed yet, RCMP said. The incident continues to be investigated.
“For any non-investigational related inquiries, please reach out to Correctional Service Canada,” the release stated.
